Answer: Driving after surgery Dear improvement159,it should be safe for you to drive home if only local anesthesia was used. In case of IV anesthesia, you shouldn't drive.

Answer: Safe to drive after local anesthesia? Thank you for your question. I would direct this question to your surgeon for a definitive answer, as he/she will have a protocol to follow after your procedure. In general, however, it is usually safe to drive if you have had local anesthesia, only. It is not safe, however, if you have any oral or IV anesthesia. Again, I would talk with your surgeon about this specifically. I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

You should discuss this with your particular surgeon however, just to make sure that no other medications would be used that could affect your ability to drive.
